Singing Career
In 1961, Ustad Akhtar Sadmani returned home and joined Radio Pakistan (Dhaka) a year later as an artist. He became a Music Director in Radio Bangladesh (Dhaka) in 1966.
He was always very keen to spread his knowledge of Indian Classical Music in his homeland Bangladesh. To create and establish a platform for classical musical practice and appreciation, he worked really hard. In 1980 he established “Sur Rang Academy of Classical Music” all by himself. The academy was the first of its kind in Bangladesh, solely devoted to Indian Classical Music.

Famous quotes containing the words singing and/or career:
“His singing carried me back to the period of the discovery of America ... when Europeans first encountered the simple faith of the Indian. There was, indeed, a beautiful simplicity about it; nothing of the dark and savage, only the mild and infantile. The sentiments of humility and reverence chiefly were expressed.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
““Never hug and kiss your children! Mother love may make your children’s infancy unhappy and prevent them from pursuing a career or getting married!” That’s total hogwash, of course. But it shows on extreme example of what state-of-the-art “scientific” parenting was supposed to be in early twentieth-century America. After all, that was the heyday of efficiency experts, time-and-motion studies, and the like.”
—Lawrence Kutner (20th century)
